“Local Fallbrook resident Jeremy Leon Guerrero created an amigurumi crochet eastern dragon that went viral online. … … For this eastern dragon, he had been asked to test the pattern out by Megan Lapp, who runs a group on Facebook with a little over 7,000 members called ‘Crafty Intentions Amigurumi and Crochet Community.’…
Though Lapp lives in Pennsylvania, she noticed Leon Guerrero’s enthusiasm and work within the group after he joined and asked him to come on board as a group moderator.
“Generally, people join when they find my patterns and purchase a pattern,” Lapp said. “I encourage them to join it and that’s the perfect place for them to share photos of their works in progress, photos of finished objects, or any questions that they have as they follow the pattern along the way, and I provide immediate support for questions.
“I also have a team of experienced moderators who are volunteers, and just enthusiastic, very familiar with my pattern and experienced crocheters.” ”

Megan Lapp tried many different fiber crafts but nothing held her interest as intensely as crochet. She has designed some pretty amazing, magical creatures and obviously puts in tremendous care and detail into her patterns.
Great care is taken with the internal wiring and construction of each body piece so each creature can stand up and be posed in different ways. The body shaping is fantastic, they look so authentic. …
It took me 8 years to get to the point where I can write crochet patterns for other people to follow.
This particular dragon pattern took me five months to design, and now that the pattern has been published, I can’t wait to see what new dragons are born into this world because of it!
